Barack Obama furious at General Stanley McChrystal speech on Afghanistan

" McChrystal is a Special Forces Commander and while Obama was chewing out his ass on Air Force One McChrystal was no doubt thinking of Pounding his Bony Little Ass into the carpet ."

The relationship between President Barack Obama and the commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan has been put under severe strain by Gen Stanley McChrystal's comments on strategy for the war.

According to sources close to the administration, Gen McChrystal shocked and angered presidential advisers with the bluntness of a speech given in London last week.

The next day he was summoned to an awkward 25-minute face-to-face meeting on board Air Force One on the tarmac in Copenhagen, where the president had arrived to tout Chicago's unsuccessful Olympic bid.
